In any case, I've read that thread and it is about something completely different - it is referring to claiming rent on expenses while having an owned flat. Whereas this thread is about claiming expenses on kitchen equipment and cleaning materials.
As for claiming rent which both you and Clare have commented on (even though it belongs in the other thread), I don't agree with you. If I choose to rent in London instead of commuting several hours a day, that is my choice as a contractor and an expense I have incurred wholly for the business regardless of whether anyone, including a tax inspector, has an opinion on how feasible three hours of commuting each day is. What are they going to say? "You rented this flat in London, which we accept is purely for contracting in London, but you are going to have to pay tax on it anyway." Rubbish!
I have much better things to do with my life than spend 756 hours a year on the train, which equates to over one entire calendar month sat continuously on a train!!!
